Samsung Galaxy S4 whatsapp images error - Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys. I have a Samsung galaxy S4 I9500XXUFNA6 Build Number KOT49H I9500XXUFNB3. I recently hard reset it to wipe all data but now it's failing to download or send images on whatsapp, I can't view or change profile photos. On facebook it is also not saving photos. How do I fix it??

First off, you're on the wrong forum. The forum for the i9500 can be found here. Offhand, I'd say it sounds like you need to update your version of android. That build number is from February 2014

Even I have same problem on my SGN bought in India. I'm using "ExDialer and Contacts" app with SGS 2 theme. Even this has lag but only 1-2 seconds.
Hello!
Im using Asylum ICS rom, and i have no lag in contacts/dialer.
Are you running stock rom? maybe something with original rom that causes the lag.
As for the whiteness i dont seem to have any problem what i can see.
I had the same problem and fallowed this tutorial: and started fresh with my Galaxy Note and everything works fine since then.
Maybe you have a different problem but it's worth to give it a try
No lags on my Galaxy Note From day one..
If you are On stock GB . Perform a factory Reset/Data wipe.
after that In display settings Check No animations.
If you are Rooted Uninstall all the Samsung useless stuff.
If this will Not help Search a custom Rom that suits you best.
Thane flash it.
Enjoy your Note.

Full screen caller id

Hi is there a mod to have only the fullscreen caller picture? I tried the gravity one but doesn't work. I am on kk rooted. Thanks
There's a lot of them in Z1 section. Try to find 'em all....
They do work, but not with the latest 108 or higher FW.
It just needs modifying to do that. The modder that did it never updated to the latest FW.

I'm on v133 stock at the moment and it seems to have full screen as default in phone app - unless I'm deluded or something, I can see photos of my contacts on full screen when the call comes in.
Truth to be told, I had to update all my friends photos in contacts app, but once I did it, their photos display full screen without any problems. I'm on this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z1/development/stock-14-4-0-133-t2887081 and didn't apply de-odex patch yet. Also no MODs installed in Xposed.
Can you do a screenshot please

the size of the caller's picture is still a puzzle to me?
My contacts are in sync with google. When i bought this phone I sync' ed contacts and got small pictures, so I spent 1h reassigning new pictures directly on the phone, and since then i started having full screen pictures. Then I upgrade with flashtool and, due to a problem, I reset all data, so i had to re-sync contacts, and the caller's pictures, altough the new ones, were small again.
I believe it is still the sam old story with google: when you assign a new contact picture from the phone, the phone keeps the hi-res one while google resizes the photo.

[Q] No more Facebook badge count...

Good evening everybody,
Since a few days my Z1 with stock 5.0.2 rooted/unlocked, the Facebook icon doesnt show the badge count anymore,
My wife has an LG G3 (unrooted) and it has the same issue, we also have a Galaxy Tab 4 and a S5 and they still show the badge.
All devices use the same version of the Facebook app.
Does anyone know why and can someone tell me how to fix it?
I liked the badge because i could easily see that there was an notification.
TIA greetings Dirk

I noticed the same issue with my Z1 !
Is the new Fb update responsible for for it ?
I think so, but on Samsung devices it still works.
After the update from FB problem solved.

Can I do this on the Note 5?

Hi guys,
I have a Galaxy Note 3 presently and it's having some minor software issues + issues with the loudspeaker. I can't be bothered fixing them - so I'm going to use it as an excuse to upgrade! Therefore, I'm going to get a Note 5. I haven't researched it much but assume it's a big improvement on the Note 3...
I don't use my phone for anything more than calls, messages, emails, Facebook and Snapchat really. I'd like to keep it as stock as possible, but I do need the following features:
1) Bypass exchange security settings on emails that require you to put a PIN/Password to unlock your phone every single time. I have been able to do this on the Note 3.
2) Remove messages from the call log. Not sure if this was fixed in the newer android versions but it was very annoying when I first got my phone. I only want to see calls in my call log.
How can I do the above on the Note 5 with the least amount of stuffing around/customising my phone?
Also, are there any 'must have' accessories for the Note 5? And should I be considering any other phones as alternatives before I go ahead and buy a Note 5?
Cheers

hi ,
i can give you an idea or two ..it's up to you if you want to do it .
Firstly ,i have Note 2,Note 3 Note 4 and Note 5 .
What it did was with my Note 3 was installed a custom Rom Phronesis port of Note5 .
Its a very stable Rom and a clone of Note 5 software. I must admit, it very identical to Note 5 ,smooth ,fast ,no hiccups . ect
Secondly I just check my call log and only see phone calls listed ,no messages .
Thirdly cannot help you with that ,sorry .
Fourthly , as stated i have nearly whole Note range and really enjoy Note5 ,smoothness ,performance battery life on par with my other Notes ..very good
Bottom line ,
Its your decission ?.
good luck
I have a stock N920C ,not rooted .

Thanks mate. With my Note 3, the call log shows messages and calls received/made/missed, which is stupid. You can set it to show only calls, but then it reverts back again. Perhaps this was rectified in newer software versions, but as standard the Note 3 shows calls and messages in the log.
I need a new phone regardless, as my loudspeaker on my current phone is not working, but thanks for the idea.
Any advice on the Exchange Security bypass would be appreciated...

hi ,
I agree that your decision to get new device
is a good idea .Just wanted you to know, if you wanted to keep your "old " Note 3 ,you can spice it up ,(as a second backup device .)
Re the call log and messages ,there's a simple solution .Samsung log converter (free app ..Google Play ) see screenshots .
I used it for my Note 3 and my Note 8.0 tablet ,to seperate log messages from call log works fine on Note 3 and Note 8.0
I am suprised you have not used it ..?
Anyway ,good luck
Thanks alot, that app worked a treat!
Just need some help with the exchange security bypass now...
Thanks
I use an application called nine for my exchange emails it has a bypass built in the app and is far superior to the standard Samsung email app. It's a paid app but for exchange it's the best I've used.

Thanks mate - does your phone need to be rooted to use the bypass? I'm guessing so....?
Need to be rooted to use bypass in the normal email app.

Once rooted, how do I bypass the settings in the normal email app?

Hi guys,
I'm told I can probably just root, and check if there are any apps that allow me to bypass the exchange settings.
Failing this, I'm told I could go the Xposed module and apply the fix, or use a ROM which has it built in. Which path should I go down? What's the difference?
Cheers

Hello, I'm an user of samsung galaxy s5 Korean variants G900K and last night, I updated my phone to MM and if you guys want to know what has been changed in the new version of the firmware, I will write a list of the change log I found.
1. the app icons are changed into 5.1.1 one except the internet app and SystemUI is same as last version. none of things are changed.
2. When the application requires some permission, you can make a decision whether you allow the permission or not.
3. when the screen changes like closing apps, opening apps, etc... there's an effect zoom in and zoom out
4. when you turn on/off your screen, like galaxy note5, there's an fade in/out effect from edge of the screen to center
5. the multitasking button's responding time has been reduced.
6. the smart manager application have a widget to clean ram and storage.
Finally, the fingerprint scanner's scanning speed is increased and every time you reboot your phone, thought you have set the fingerprint lockscreen, you have to enter the backup password once.
These are what I've found and there might be more than these. Sorry for bad English cuz I'm Korean so my main language isn't English....

Same reason Microsoft won't put DX12 in Windows 7 or 8.x, no reason to upgrade if all features are in older devices / OSs
